IPC: A61B19/08
Filed: 2001-09-07
Abstract: A flexible surgical drape (10), having an adhesive side (14), and a non-adhesive side (12). The adhesive side (14) is adhesive across substantially its entire face. The drape (10) consists of a flexible sheet suitable for covering a substantial portion of a patient's body. A pocket (24), for catching patient secretions and other fluids is attached to the adhesive side (14), of the drape. The drape (10), contains an opening (16), capable of receiving a removable valve, which, when in place, seals off the opening (16), and prevents the passage of gases, secretions, and fluids that are typically present during a medical procedure. The valve can be made to lock into the opening so as to reduce the likelihood of its inadvertent removal. An examining tool such as a colonoscope fits through a hole extending through the valve and thus can be passed from one side of the drape to the other.

Title: Saving and retrieving data based on symmetric key encryption
Inventor: ENGLAND PAUL
IPC: G06F7/00
Filed: 2003-04-09
Abstract: In accordance with certain aspects, data is received from a calling program. Ciphertext that includes the data is generated, using a symmetric cipher, in a manner that allows only one or more target programs to be able to obtain the data from the ciphertext. In accordance with other aspects, a bit string is received from a calling program. An identifier of the calling program is checked to determine whether the calling program is allowed to access data encrypted in ciphertext of the bit string. The integrity of the data is also verified, and the data is decrypted using a symmetric key. The data is returned to the calling program only if the calling program is allowed to access the data and if the integrity of the data is successfully verified.

Title: Process and device for regulating a rail motor car's power demand
Inventor: DEBARD JEAN-MICHEL
IPC: B60L5/04
Filed: 2003-04-16
Abstract: The power control procedure for the electrical motor of a railway vehicle deriving power from a catenary cable uses measurement of the open voltage (Vcat0), evaluated at the sub-station. From this the maximum available power for a catenary cable section is determined, and the power taken by the engine is limited to lie within this permitted maximum.  The procedure for controlling the power required by the engine of a railway vehicle operates with current collectors co-operating with a catenary cable supplied with direct current by sub-stations distributed along the railway route. It includes measuring the catenary voltage (Vcat) at the engine level, and measuring the catenary current (Icat) at the engine level. The open voltage (Vcat0) is evaluated at the sub-stations supplying the catenary cable to which the engine is connected, and the maximum power available at the catenary cable is determined by the relation Pmax = (Vcat0)2 / 4asteriskR, where R is the resistance of the cable. The power requested by the motor is the limited to a limit value (Plim) which is less than or equal to the calculated maximum power.

Abstract: A Collection Symbolic Job Expander enables people and programs to use convenient, symbolic job request expressions to perform complex operations on large numbers of collections with essentially no human effort involved. Collections are data-typed sets of computer files that can be manipulated as a set, rather than as individual files. In operation, a Collection Symbolic Job Expander receives a collection symbolic job request from a request originator, and performs a collection job expansion action on the request to produce a list of expanded job requests. Each expanded job request is comprised of a collection name, a user-defined computing platform name, and a processing dependency order ranking. Collection Symbolic Job Expanders improve human productivity by enabling people to perform operations on large sets of collections without being required to provide low-level processing details such as specific collection names, specific computing platform assignments, or processing dependency information.  Collection Symbolic Job Expanders thereby enable the construction of advanced automated collection processing systems that can process large sets of collections in distributed, multiplatform, scalable ways that were not previously known to the art.
